Mounted on a wall or flush to a ceiling, the satin-finished sphere glows evenly all round, like a single theatre dressing-room bulb made elegant, and it dims for evening. Choose polished brass, polished nickel or glossy black for the ring to match taps, hardware or picture frames.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQuick facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pallina wall\/ceiling light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e FontanaArte, Milan, Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem number (MPN):\u003c\/strong\u003e F443060150OTNU (Polished Brass); see each finish for its own number\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardwired globe wall light and ceiling light, dual mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest for:\u003c\/strong\u003e vanity mirrors, bedsides, hallways, closets, small bedrooms, hotel bathrooms and corridors, bars and restaurants\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGlobe diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.7 in (12 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDepth (projection):\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.1 in (13 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight source:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x G9 bulb, 6W maximum, 110V (bulb not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight\/dimming:\u003c\/strong\u003e diffused, dimmable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation:\u003c\/strong\u003e hardwired to a wall or ceiling junction box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRating:\u003c\/strong\u003e IP20, dry indoor locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/strong\u003e opal blown glass with a satin finish; galvanized (electroplated) metal frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinishes available:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polished Brass, Polished Nickel, Glossy Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertification:\u003c\/strong\u003e ETL (Intertek) pending\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner:\u003c\/strong\u003e FontanaArte Design Lab (2019)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyles:\u003c\/strong\u003e Modern, Contemporary, Transitional, Minimalist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0673\/1264\/8406\/files\/etl-intertek-pending-certification-mark.png\" alt=\"ETL Intertek pending certification mark: ETL listing for the US and Canadian markets is in progress\" width=\"72\" height=\"72\"\u003e ETL (Intertek) listing for this light is in progress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLight quality and how it performs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePallina is a pure sphere of opal blown glass with a satin finish, so it glows uniformly with no hot spot and no visible bulb. A small G9 lamp (6W maximum, LED recommended) sits inside, giving a soft decorative light rather than strong task light: it is the glow that frames a mirror, marks a doorway or keeps a hallway gently lit at night. Because the light leaves the globe in every direction, a pair either side of a mirror lights the face evenly from both sides, the classic dressing-room effect that inspired the design. It is dimmable, so the same fixture can be bright for getting ready and low for evenings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSize and placement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe globe is 4.7 in (12 cm) across and the light projects 5.1 in (13 cm) from the wall or drops 5.1 in from the ceiling.
